Do you feel overwhelmed by pressure to keep up, or like you're carrying more than your share? Does your mind race with worries about the future, or like you can't shake the feeling that you're somehow not enough? Have you lost your drive and feel stuck? Living like this is exhausting, and you deserve more than just getting by. In our work together, we'll make sense of what's been weighing on you and move toward something that feels more like peace and assurance in yourself. I work with adults and teens navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, school or work stress, trauma, and grief.
I also specialize in working with adoptees and adoptive parents. As an Adoption Competent Therapist, I create space for adoptees to explore their story, process loss, and make sense of identity and belonging. I guide parents in understanding how the adoptee experience evolves as children grow, and navigating open and supportive conversations about adoption.
If you’ve experienced something traumatic—like a car accident or abuse—even though it feels close to the surface, healing is possible. I use Memory Reconsolidation, an effective approach that works in just several sessions to eliminate the emotional and physical discomfort you experience when you're reminded of the event, even if it happened decades ago.

Groups
Adoptee Group
I facilitated one-time and ongoing groups for adoptees ages 4th grade through young adults. These groups combine creative activities with exploring feelings and teaching strategies for handling adoption-related experiences. Groups are a powerful way for adoptees to fit in and belong. They provide an opportunity to share questions and experiences around adoption in a supportive place.
